I'm regularly finding that people don't seem to understand the "already crossing the road" part. On several occasions I've had people start to cross a few feet in front of me when I'm indicating and have already started turning, causing me to stand on the brakes and risk a shunt from the car behind.

The Highway code states that those waiting to cross also have right of way

> At a junction you should give way to pedestrians crossing or waiting to cross a road into which or from which you are turning
